SOTTY Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) "Dusty" getting ready and present at this past weekends "Mesquite Mania" hotrod and classic carshow.Dusty is a 1988 Conquest tsi shp, i'm the second owner , in the past few months Dusty recieved a total "strip down" resto and new paint by California paint and body here in Las vegas.Under the hood the car is fully "blinged" running full *DM hardpipe kit,big intercooler, radiator and a host of other "old school" HKS items topped of with a spanking new 14g turbo and runs STRONG ! ,what isnt chrome plated is either polished or gold anodized.

HeroJr Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Looks really great! I have a red 88 TSi (non-SHP) that I hope to get to a level of polish near that soon. Nice car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOTTY Posted January 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) The famous ScottyGibb red shp! man that car is beautiful. Looks outstanding mang. That thing was nice before you even started the restoration.Yea man it was in great shape , it had a few tiny dings in the body that always really annoyed me , a good "dentpro"guy could have put it right but i went the long expensive route and the guys at California paint and body did an outstanding job on the tear-down, body and paint job even down to replicating the rare optional pin-striping on the door sills and fenders , sad thing now is the car is so pretty i'm scared to drive or park it anywere !

SOTTY Posted June 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Pain to keep clean it is , thats a old pic , i kept the 'bling thing' going to the point i ran out of things to bling , Viper,the chrome battery cover is a plastic door mirror cut down and made into a cover with blingy terminals , the car is now in the process of going MPI and of course its blinged out also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
